Will Harris's new economic policy take her to the White House?
Listen now
Description
With officially less than a month until Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump begin their final campaign sprints in the race to the White House. Between the release of the new pillar to her ‘care economy’ as well as her big media blitz to increase voter outreach, it was a busy week for Harris. Will these latest strategies work in favor or against her campaign? In this week’s episode of Capitol Gains, anchor Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and Senior Columnist Rick Newman sound off on Harris’s new policy updates, talk about what’s new with undecided voters, and discuss the latest with the economy and how it’s working in President Joe Biden’s favor. Later in the episode, Akuffo, Werschkul, and Newman are joined by Michael Medved, host of The Michael Medved Show, to talk about Trump’s tariffs plan and how it could impact the national debt. While projections indicate that the national debt would rise under another Trump administration, Werschkul asks Medved why economic policymakers in Washington D.C. are not publicly speaking more on the issue. Medved keeps his answer simple. “Nobody believe’s [Trump would] get it through congress.” Capitol Gains is Yahoo Finance’s unique look at how US government policy will impact your bottom line long after the Presidential election polls have closed.
